This will tell us if, despite the changes in people, whether the mentality of the ultimate KSU decision-makers has changed at all since 2012.

You're going to believe what you want to believe regardless.

I can already write the script for your segment of the fan base.
1. Have a really narrow group of acceptable hires, in this case it's Kim English and Brad Underwood.
2. Bitch and whine about K-State athletics and Amy Button Renz when you don't get your way.
3. Voilà!

I've seen the script a thousand times, it's not K-State that needs to determine whether or not it's changed, I hate to tell you bud, but it's you.

Has there been anyone relevant or difference-making?

I personally don't know nearly enough about college basketball anymore to have any opinion on who would be good to hire.

Let's see what's prioritized in the hiring process/efforts.

Since oscar was hired we've hired at least one coach in every sport but volleyball and track, we've hired an athletic director, and two different university presidents. I think General Myers was the Doug Gottlieb of university presidents and it most definitely didn't work out. The new guy was definitely a traditional hire.

I guess that was an inapplicable question because it's almost impossible to hire anyone relevant or difference-making (to me) in anything but football and mbb.

The last time anyone non-emaw/kansan talked to me about anything emaw was an uber driver in like 2015, and he thought we still had that basketball coach with the "crazy eyes."

See the problem here is you're already cast your judgment on the football coach, you followed the exact formula I laid out. Klieman is looking like he's a SLTH and LittreLL would have been a disaster. You're already playing the wait it out game and instead of saying "yeah I was probably wrong about Klieman v. LittreLL" you'll just wait out the clock until he, like 95% of all coaches, gets fired then act like we didn't see what we saw.

Lol at LittreLL. That was just funny and posted loudly about because of Pete and the squat racks. I wanted Saban or Dabo.  ;)

Anyway, Nets-Sixers time.

Simmons isn't even playing tho

If we get Brad I’m going to get season tickets.  I may only go to 4 games a year but eff it.

Yeah, it's a done deal for me too if that is the case.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

if we set the benchmark as better than frank martin's time here, i think brad gets it 80% of the time. tang/unt more like 25%. we'd have to pay them 5 and 3 million respectively. does all the extra tickets make up that 2 mill? plus the lower chance at having to fire and pay a buyout. i dunno. it makes sense to me. let's get brad!

I think it would be cool to win at basketball and I think Brad is the simplest way to do that.

I wouldn't expect NYCcat to understand that hayseed tater/wheat farmers are like 40% richer over the past year and that KS ranks 9th out of states in oil production.

Has Russia invading Ukraine finally given K-State the financial power to become a big time college athletics program?!? Talk about the monkeys paw.

Me and two emaws had a legit "brad is coming" discussion in the tmobile pissers tonight so I think it's kind of a lock.

Incredibly, tonight marked the next time a non-EMAW/Kansan talked to me about EMAW when the big 12 games were on another tv and I was asked if I’d heard that oscar Weber resigned.

Simmons being so happy chilling in his bright yellow was great. I hope Kyrie gets debilitating covid.

That’s a pretty rough ridin' elite shoutout.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

  Valentine is legit. Goddamn he’s young, but he’s for real. I bet he’ll be a big time coach before it is all said and done.

Probably too late for kyrie to get that COVID. I'd much rather the nets win the east other than the sixers or heat.

I hate to interrupt your NBA talk, but getting back to the most likely coach Mean Green would hire I would bet it's an FCS coach.  Those are the coaches he knows and I wouldn't be surprised if it's one from Missouri Valley.

Word on the street is that kstate can make Brad a competitive-to-his-current-structure offer, but wouldn’t be able to compete if Illinois wants to dump crazy money on him (I would guess >5m and escalating), which apparently they can do.

Definitely worth a shot if Brad is serious about K S of U being his dream job.
